Treasures Found at the Cemetery
I spent ten days near the Salt Lake City Cemetery, while Allan was in the hospital. It was interesting to hike to it and stroll among the graves. This week after his doctor's appointment we went there again, stopping in at the cemetery office. They located the headstones of Elizabeth and Adam Hunter, gave us a map and we found them.
How cool is that? One hundred year old graves, with our great, great, great grand parents residing there all these years. Now I know where they are.

Four Year Anniversary Today
It's the four year anniversary of when Mom died. It came all too soon, and the time has passed quickly.
Much has happened since her death as life goes on. There have been three weddings, three missionary grandchildren and three missionary great-grand children serve, twelve great grand babies have been born, and so on. She left a great legacy. Many people still tell me how friendly and they loved her.
Here are some of her favorite things: German Chocolate cake was her specialty. Her cake mix was Duncan Hines with homemade coconut frosting. We loved it.
Cereal Candy. She gave it as Christmas gifts, took it to every party and we had unlimited supplies. She kept a year storage of the ingredients, in case she was asked to make it. No one could duplicate it quite like she made it.
Green Jello with cottage cheese. My personal favorite of all time. I always said when she made it, "I will love this forever!" I still do.
She always wore a Timex men's watch with a metal band. The battery is still working to this day. I use her last one every morning to keep track of time, when I go walking.
KSL Radio was her one and only station. She listened to it every day. Her favorite DJ was Doug Wright. As a girl I remember the radio always being on. It was a battle to be able to listen to our sixties music, because she was KSL all the way.
